That's a great idea!

Cops took the tools for prints and think that someone or something scared them off before they could move to the other side and get the other one. You want to see stupid looks on people's faces then tell them how much one of these cost. The insurance guy didn't believe me until he checked...

Somebody took off my passenger side rear shock the other night. Parked in the driveway with the outside house lights on between about 12 and 5. Left the tools they used in the driveway. In case you haven't heard these retail at around $735 dollars plus tax. So watch out. They will take...

I didn't hear anything but thought that it would be a great thing for them to do since they are getting so much press about the win. I surfed the heck out of Google and there isn't anything about any sort of clothing associated with this team. Too bad.

Anybody know if the team that came in first in a Raptor is selling T-shirts? I, for one, would buy a couple. I did a Google search and came up bupkis. Thanks! John

Iceman - no problem.

I didn't mean for this to sound like a complaint - I knew what it was when I bought it - just reporting in. In fact, my 12.9 reading is only 3 mpg less than my 2005 Tacoma doing the same routine and, as good as that truck was, it ain't a patch of the Raptor.

So you're saying go with Ravelco and Lojac?

2010 supercab 6.2L engine. This was a combination of street and some freeway driving - I will have had it a week tomorrow. Not babying it but not punching it at every turn. I hope it gets a little better - I just put $50 worth in it and I only have 3/4 of a tank. John

Sorry.

First tankfull of gas - 12.9 MPG - moved Moved to the one and only gas mileage thread

You are all right, of course. If the pros want it then they will get it somehow. It is interesting to me that no one has demonstrated that the PATS of the Raptor can be defeated on the street without sophisticated computer machinery? So, in this case maybe the Lojac is a better way to spend...

I just got my Raptor, a friend of a friend got one recently too, another distant acquaintance is looking. I have a theory about why (other than the obvious fact that it is the coolest truck ever!)- it's because the Raptor is the automotive equivalent of a man-cave. It has a very confortable...

So has anyone had their Raptor stolen in this way? I'm trying to decide whether I need an alarm along with a Club and the PATS or just some sort of fuel or electrical cut-off device with the Club and PATS. I'm leaning toward the cutoff device scenario. Thanks! John

If they are sophisticated enough to have software then they will get it no matter what security is on the truck. Sheesh! So much for 82 billion codes etc.

I have read of trcks being vandalized but can thieves easily defeat this system? Thanks! John

I've monkeyed with my non-Nav system and I don't think that I get the Sirius Travel thing. However, since my job or life normally doesn't involve finding addresses that I am unfamiliar with and I can program in an address in Sync when I do need directions, it's not a problem. The truck is...

Thanks Bojangles - that's a great review. There is more than I thought to the Nav system and the feature that identifies stores. gas stations, etc. on the map would be cool. However, I do have Sirius so I wonder if I still get the Travel Link but get audio information about these locations...

I didn't get the Nav because I was breaking my budget big time for the truck as a whole and maybe I'll live to regret it. However, with Sync I have hands free dialing, directions, weather, news, sports, etc. Also. the backup camera in my rearview mirror works great. What does the Nav system...

I appreciate the encouragement! Here are some not very good photos of the truck. I'll take some better one later. Just a plain-jane white truck but it's already gotten some attention this morning and this afternoon. The only mods that I'm thinking about right now are security mods. I've...

2010, extended cab, 6.2L, white, no graphics, just about everything else but the Nav system - yes, I know that you all think that I'll regret it but I don't think so. Anyway, $3332 off sticker and I'm happier than a pig in slop. photos to follow John

You guys are killing me. I haven't bought a Ford since 1990 and so haven't been to these dealers before. I was talking to a sales manager at one and a salesperson at the other. Admittedly, I wouldn't go into the sales building to get tortured so maybe that had something to do with it? And...

Well, I'm actively looking for my 2010 6.2 extended cab Raptor and the trucks that are "basic" - those without Nav, backup camera, or Moonroof, etc. - are being discounted a little bit - say $2500-3000 off sticker. However, those that I want with Nav and Moonroof and all the goodies aren't...

Let's see? First, I don't have it yet because I cannot decide on color, I cannot decide wheter to get the Nav system, I cannot decide whether to get the moonroof, and I cannot decide if $3500 off sticker is enough to pull the trigger.

No, the kid's been driving gmc Sierra with 160000 miles on it and now he will move on to a Tacoma with 112000 miles. I am officially looking for my Raptor. I drove the Caddy again and the CTS-V is nice and very fast but . . . . . . .
